Designed to handle the high-power consumption demands of today's RV campers, the 30A Portable Surge Guard analyzes circuits to identify power supply status. This unit checks for open ground, open neutral, correct polarity, and reversed lines/ground. The weather-resistant Surge Guard features a surge protection indicator and thermal sensor to indicate overheating plug/receptacle. High-gauge brass construction provides years of reliable use. Plugs directly into the power pedestal with no pigtail for plugging in the cord.

Can I plug into a 50 amp with a 30 amp adapter with this unit?

Yes, this surge protector will still work if an adapter is used to connect it to a 50amp RV power outlet.

What does it mean that this unit plugs into pedestal with no pigtail for power cord. How does my unit electrical cord connect to this unit or doesn't it?

Asked by: road warrior

The corded side of this Surge Guard is a male plug that attaches to the pedestal. At the bottom of this unit is an RV 30amp female receptacle for the power cord from a camper to plug in to.

Can I hook this up to my generator?

Asked by: Anonymous

Yes, the 442xx series can be safely plugged in to a generator that has a TT-30 receptacle or by using an appropriate adapter.&lt;p&gt;However, most portable generators are designed with a &quot;floating neutral electrical system&quot;(refer to generator manual or manufacturer for this information), so the Surge Guard may show an open ground fault. This can be corrected with Southwire/Surge Guard part#44400(Neutral-Ground Bonding Plug), contact our Technical Service Department @ 800.622.6264(M-F, 8:00-5:00 CST) to check pricing and availability as this part has to be special ordered.
